I bought a 2011 for territory with the Alpine TMX-R2000. The unit has power but the screen wont light up and is blank. The screen lit up a week ago when we viewed the car. Is there settings on the car head unit that need to be changed? The dealer did reset the nav system could this be the cause?

Hi Allan,

To my understanding, both are inter-compatible to either NTSC or PAL.; the player will auto detect what format the disc is and auto-switch over. As the manual says, "DVE-5207 automatically changes the video output signal (NTSC or PAL), according to the disc." On the other hand, the TMX-R705 needs manual settings (2 ways):
1. NTSC and PAL can be directly switched when the DISP on the TMX-R705 remote button is pressed for at least 2 seconds; or
2. On the TMX-R705 remote, press the SETUP button, press the DOWN or UP button within 10 seconds and select AUX 1 SIG. or AUX 2 SIG., press the LEFT or RIGHT button within 10 seconds to set the selection.

Just an after thought, pls verify that your DVD Region number is either 2 or ALL. Additionally, you can verify the color format the unit is using (as well as the disc) by pressing DISPLAY during playback on the player.

Should this not be corrective, perhaps you need to check the grounding/wiring and the interconnections cables.

Hope that this be of some help/idea. Pls post back how things turned up or should you need additional information.

Good luck and kind regards.

SOURCE: alpine IVA-D310-navigation option?

You need the navigation system NVE-N872A. I have one I might sell. Make me an offer. They are $1700 new. If I don't sell it I am putting it in my porsche but then I need to buy the IVA-D310 that you have. Maybe you want to sell that unit to me? Let me know.

I had the same problem, and then I figured it out. I unhooked the dvd rom opened up the unit and noticed there were resistors on the board which were burned out and the inside of the housing showed slight signs of oxidation. I came to the conclusion that since the unit was mounted in the trunk the unit malfunctioned from water intrusion or moisture, which shorted out the board. Now I'm searching the web to see if I can find a Denso repair facility.

1st of all never bring it to a dealer--mechanics generally don\'t have experience--they don\'t pay enough for the good guys. It probably needs a new module or sensor-running a data stream with factory tools by a good shop works. And it\'s best to use new parts with electronics.
